Open your music player of choice, add all your music, hit "shuffle", and hit next.
Now, let's generate a character from some of those songs.
Either go with the theme of the song or with your gut feeling upon hearing the song.

NORMAL MODE
  • 1st song - Setting
  • 3nd song - Race
  • 5th song - Class
  • 6th song - Character Theme Song
  • 7th song - If you have a minon/sidekick/companion, their theme.


HARD MODE
  • 9th song - Backstory
  • 11th song - Motivation
  • 13th song - Drawback/Failing


NIGHTMARE MODE
  • 15th song - Personal Philosophy
  • 18th song - Moral Code

Just off the top of my head mine's looking like a Tiefling or Hellbred (Breaking Away) Paladin (Templars of Steel) with some time-travel ability (E=MC^2) with a Druid companion (Mother Earth) in a fiendish campaign (Planet Hell).

Grew up in a "survival of the fittest" region (Nightside of Eden), searching for a conspiracy (The Truth is Out There) but prone to getting attached to people then getting them hurt, killed, or traumatized (Moonlight). Knows s/he only has so long before their enemies catch up to them, and is always making preparations and seemingly paranoid (7 Days to the Wolves). Well-meaning and dependable, but has a weird sense of humor and seemingly odd priorities (Heavy Metal Jesus).

I've got a Lawful something or other (Discord), likely Paladin or Cavalier (Stand My Ground, Iron Knight), likely Tiefling or something else like to get pitchfork'd (Mob Song) with a very dependable sidekick (Man of the Hour) looking for love (Uptown Girl).

I guess?

NORMAL MODE


So... In a world half underground and half underwater, there lives a Lycanthrope Assassin, living and working only to fuel his own inevitable self-destruction. To give him moral support is the groaning voice of an eldritch god, long buried under the ground, whose yawning voice can only be heard by this guy.

HARD MODE


...So growing up, this guy was made fun of by halflings and gnomes for his height, on top of hearing this elder god's voice in his head all his life. As such, being the victim of such bullying, the ancient deity guided him to safety when the bullying got more violent. Guided by this voice, he ran and he ran, escaping them repeatedly, until one day, in his adulthood, he came across a very forgiving woman. They fell in love, and bore a child.
But the elder god had a deal with this guy. Part of the deal for helping him run for safety all these years was that the elder god would be possess his first born child.
And that is exactly what he did.

NIGHTMARE MODE


He cares not for the evil that exists within humanity and its mortal ilk. He knows... The true evil in this world lies in a region so far north and frozen that it is encased entirely in ice. He knows that it lives, he knows that it's been speaking to him. He, and only he... By comparison, mortals aren't such a bad sort.
They're just a gathering of fools.
Walking amongst them, he thinks Fool, just another. Fool, just another...

Backstory - "Eclipse" by Nightwish
Motivation - "Counterstrike" by Sabaton
Drawback/Failing - "Led Astray" by Sirenia

Philosophy - "Light in the Black" by Sabaton
Moral Code - "States of Matter" by Avantasia

Loner (I Walk Alone) Elf (Elvenpath; seriously this is probably the only song that'll get me to play an Elf) Blight/Reincarnated Druid (Broken) in a gritty medieval campaign centering on life in a cruel fiefdom (Boiling Led). Part of a nocturnal clan that disdains the day, perhaps due to being hunted by daylight by humans and preferring nighttime as a result (Eclipse).

Keeps getting distracted by failures, interruptions, poor fortune, and misjudgements (Led Astray). Is motivated by vengeance and retribution for prior defeats (Counterstrike). Regardless never gives up hope completely (Light in the Black). Moral code is near nonexistent, and other than pursuing her vengeance she simply seems to be in it for whatever stimulation, entertainment, and experiences s/he can withstand (States of Matter).

His creator was killed young (Candle in the Wind), and he is out for vengeance (I Want My Tears Back), but has a slight issue with collateral damage (Havoc).

He's developed a very very paranoid mindset.

A Tiefling set on a grand quest. The embodiment of evil himself is at last tired of good, and sends his best agent to exterminate them. This tiefling has been trained from birth to exterminate angels, he at last has been released to fulfill his greatest mission. To accompany and aid him, Mephisto sends with him..... A dancing bard.

HARD MODE

Taught to never stop, never falter, never fail, and to press on no matter the setbacks, determination is first nature. He will need it, if he's to succeed in his mission. If the angels are gone, then the inherent goodness of man will rise on its own, without need of divine intervention.
His mission has taken him to the realm of heaven itself, where a tiefling is an ill fit.

NIGHTMARE MODE

When ordered to fight, fight he shall, unendingly, until either he or the opponent is dead. If a sin is committed against him, he can understand and forgive, but never will the slight be forgotten.




Boring character, wouldn't play.

A lycanthrope (Cry for the Moon) Bard with a fondness for rock (The 7th Day) and an Occultist who wants to make a play for the throne (Out of Control) in a royal campaign (Palace). The were is despondent, pessimistic, and expects the worst of everything (In My Darkest Hours).

Foiled a wizard on Hallow's Eve (Wizard's Crown), and plans to use his magic to do something with damned souls from the hells (The Final Sacrifice), but never has enough time to see plans to completion (March of Time).

Lives a decadent, immoral lifestyle (She is my Sin), and while seeming alien and animalistic looks up slavishly and obediently to the Occultist (In my Eyes You're a Giant).

This screams Evil Campaign.

Antarctic campaign. Obliv's favorite! Aasimar Inquisitor, bit of a grump, paired with a somewhat manic Strix Oracle. Has a lost love from a plague for which she is sent to find a cure. She is not very patient with this, however, and will act often on impulse. A bit self-centered in many respects but very capable of shelving personal issues to reach a greater goal.

A shy (Shy), alcoholic (Twilight Tavern) Tiefling (Hell is thy Home) assassin (Snow) in a Myst campaign (Celtic Myst). Accompanied by a ruthless but shortsighted devil (probably an Imp) meant to keep them on the dark side (Blind Evil), their duty is to remove enemy leaders to subvert the opposition, and regain command of the region (Back in Control).

Their past is filled with suffering and heartache (No Dream), and they have never thought themselves worthy of reaching for or aspiring to higher goals (Where the Rain Grows). They do what they must, regardless of whether they think it right or not, because it must be done (Our Solemn Hour).

That's depressing.

Dhampir (Rose for the Dead) Witch (The Coming Curse) in a Wheel of Time campaign (Turn the Page). Betrayed by lovers and masters alike (Dark Saga), her lone loyal companion is a shadow-touched, phantom- and fiend-haunted dream mage (The Lucid Door).

A crusader despite her strangeness (Bring the Hammer Down), and in spite of multiple betrayals and disappointments still remains loyal to her cause and her leaders (Love is Blind): she sees this as the only way to make up for sins of her past (What Have You Done?). She wants to leave behind a memorable legacy (Something for the Ages), despite the fact that she will live a long, probably unpleasant life in defiance of dark powers (Forever is a Long Time).

Backstory - "Jillian" by Within Temptation

Philosophy - "The Toy Master" by Avantasia
Moral Code - "Farewell" by Avantasia

Samsaran (Memories) Stormborn Sorc (Stormrider) in Mid-World (Seize the Day). Chasing down bad guys and slaying dragons (Chasing the Dragon) with an Alchemist who has made himself immortal and seeks to bring eternal life, end to war, and perfect comfort to all with his science (Unnatural Selection).

Her many lives have allowed her to see the rise and fall of civilizations and cultures, some of which she is to blame for or failed to stop (Jillian). She makes it her duty to track down evildoers, deadly creatures, and servants of the Crimson King (The Hunter), but tends to be less judicious and more zealous than she probably should (Let the Hammer Fall). Despite her well-meaning nature, views people who aren't immortal like her partner or constantly reborn like herself as perpetual children doomed to sad, meaningless lives, and utterly reliant on those like her to give their lives purpose and pleasure (The Toy Master); she knows that eventually her multiple existences will come to an end, and the world will either be worse off for her vanishing or have to be handed over to someone else she can trust to do the job, and she feels when she goes it will be in a blaze of glory against evil itself, perhaps as fiendish as facing the Crimson King directly (Farewell).

Dang, I like this character. I'd play her. Doubly so in a Dark Tower campaign.

huh.

So, in Ancient Rome... An undead (though I like plant person more, ah well) Giantslayer that rides a horse right into the fray of battle. To him, everything is a challenge. It's all a game to improve himself, and he does it all with a smile on his face. With him is a small knight with a helmet so large it blocks his entire face and muffles all his speech. Plucky little guy, though.

And so one day, somehow, the undead guy loses his memories. Never remembering anything much, but knows there's worse things in the future. Still, despite that, he is reluctant to do anything about it. He just wants to tend to his garden... He eventually goes, though, armed with cannons held in his arms.



I'm not very good at this game.
